The Colors of Winter

When I think of winter, the first things that come to mind are cold days, gray skies, and over sized jackets that scream "giant marsh mellow". I definitely don't envision deep greens and navys that seem to make anyone look regal and elegant, along with shades of pink that make us ache for summertime and freshly tanned skin. The truth is, I have light hair, light eyes, and fair skin. The usual drab colors of winter are not attractive on me (i.e. gray sweater dresses that seem to hang on every rack, no matter the store). So, the color palette for this season has really gotten me excited!

As promised in my last post, I have found some great pieces that keep with the emerald/navy/sherbet theme of the Golden Globes.
